## Licensing

Currently most of the alerts are free features. But some alert types are subscription features, such as the tracking containment alert.

## Documentation

You should create documentation for the new alert type. Make an entry in the alert type index [`docs/user/alerting/alert-types.asciidoc`](../../../docs/user/alerting/alert-types.asciidoc) that points to a new document for the alert type that should be in the proper application directory.

## Tests

The alert type should have jest tests and optionaly functional tests.
In the the tests we recomend to test the expected alert execution result with a different input params, the structure of the created alert and the params validation. The rest will be guaranteed as a framework functionality.

### Example

This example receives server and threshold as parameters. It will read the CPU usage of the server and schedule actions to be executed (asynchronously by the task manager) if the reading is greater than the threshold.
